Nick Jonas : Company Way [Music : Lyrics]
Finch:
Mr. Twimble
Mr. twimble:
Yes?
Finch:
You've been with this company a long time, haven't you?
Mr. twimble:
A long, long time. Just last month I became a quarter of a century man
Finch:
Aww, that's beautiful! Gee, a quarter of a century!
Mr. twimble:
A quarter of a century!
Finch:
And how long have you been in the mailroom?
Mr. twimble:
25 years. Yep! It takes a combination of skill, diplomacy and bold caution
When I joined this firm
As a brash young man
Well I said to myself now brash young man
Don't get any ideas, well, I stuck to that
And haven't had one in years.
Finch:
Ah, you play it safe
Mr. twimble:
I play it the company way.
Wherever the company puts me
There I'll stay.
Finch:
But what's your point of view?
Mr. twimble:
I have no point of view!
Finch:
Supposing the company thinks
Mr. twimble:
I think so too!
Finch:
Now, what would you say if they put you-
Mr. twimble:
I wouldn't say!
Finch:
You're facing the company face
Mr. twimble:
It smiles at executives
Then goes back in place!
Finch:
The company furniture...
Mr. twimble:
Oh, it suits me fine!
Finch:
The company letterhead...
Mr. twimble:
A Valentine!
Finch:
Is there anything you're against?
Mr. twimble:
Unemployment!
Finch:
When they want brilliant thinking
From employees
Mr. twimble:
That is no concern of mine
Finch:
Suppose a man of genius make suggestions
Mr. twimble:
What's that genius get suggested to resign?
Finch:
So, you play it the company way?
Mr. twimble:
Oh, company policy is by me ok.
Finch:
You'll never rise up to the top
Mr. twimble:
But there's one thing clear
Whoever the company fires
I will still be here!
Finch:
Oh, you certainly found a home.
Mr. twimble:
It's cozy
Finch:
Your brain is a company brain.
Mr. twimble:
The company washed it,
Now I can't complain.
Finch:
The company magazine...
Mr. twimble:
Know what style, what punch
Finch:
The company restaurant
Mr. twimble:
Every day same lunch.
Their hattock sandwich, it's delicious.
Finch:
I must try it!
Mr. twimble:
Early in the week.
Finch:
Do you have any hobbies?
Mr. twimble:
I've a hobby, I play gin with Mr. Bratt.
Finch:
And do you play it nicely?
Mr. twimble:
Play it nicely, still he blitzes me on every game like that!
Finch:
Why?
Mr. twimble:
'Cause I play it the company way.
Executive policy is by me ok
Finch:
How can you get anywhere?
Mr. twimble:
Junior have no fear.
Whoever the company fires
I will still be here.
Finch:
You will still be here.
Mr. twimble:

BOTH:
Never take a risko year!
